This post-marketing investigation will evaluate the functional knee performance of Subjects who have undergone primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Data from Subjects who receive one of four contemporary knee configurations will be pooled to establish a contemporary dataset.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the pre-operative (approximately -90 to -1 day before surgery) to minimum one year (approximately 304 to 668 days) postoperative functional performance improvement for the Attune™ primary, cemented TKA system as measured by the activities of daily living (ADL)subscore of the Knee Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score (KOOS)questionnaire (KOOS-ADL sub-score). This will be carried out for all four implant configurations: cruciate retaining fixed bearing (Attune™ CR FB), cruciate retaining rotating platform (Attune™ CR RP), posterior stabilized fixed bearing (Attune™ PS FB), and posterior stabilized rotating platform (Attune™ PS RP).

Detailed Description:

The study is designed as a prospective, single arm stratified, multi-center investigation.

Approximately 20 study sites, worldwide, will enroll 1040 subjects (1040 knees). Each study is expected to enroll approximately 52 subjects (approximately 52 knees). An additional 10 subjects per site may be recruited at sites which have Sub-Investigators participating in the study. Cohort reallocation is permitted. There will be no control group. One thousand and forty (1040)Subjects will be stratified into 4 subgroups of 260: cruciate retaining fixed bearing(CR FB), posterior stabilized fixed bearing (PS FB), cruciate retaining rotating platform (CR RP), and posterior stabilized rotating platform (PS RP). Treatment assignment in this study is not randomized.

Each site will only enroll patients in one of the four knee configuration sub-groups most commonly used as their standard of care.

Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) activities of daily living (ADL) sub-score change from baseline. [ Time Frame: One year or later (approximately 304 days or later) ]

The KOOS ADL will be measured before surgery and at a minimum 1 year after surgery. The KOOS is a patient self-administered questionnaire that consists of 42 questions. The KOOS consists of 5 subscales; pain, other symptoms, activities of daily living (ADL), sport and recreational function and knee-related quality of life. Each question has 5 Likert-like response options. A normalized score (100 indicating no symptoms and 0 indicating extreme symptoms) is calculated for each subscale. The change from baseline is the minimum 1 year (approximately 304 to 668 days) measurement minus the baseline measurement.

The Oxford Knee Score (OKS) is a patient self-administered 12-item questionnaire with each question having 5 Likert- like response option. Each item is scored from 0 to 4, and the items are summated, with lower total scores indicating poorer performance. The OKS measures pain and general activities of daily living.

The Pre Surgical and/or Post-surgical Patient's Knee Implant Performance (PKIP) questionnaire is a patient self-administered questionnaire that consists of 25 questions relating to the patient's awareness of their knee. Questions include the patient's self-confidence about the current status of their knee performance, stability, and overall satisfaction. Each question has a 5, 6 or 10 Likert- like response option.

The Anterior Knee Pain and Crepitus questionnaire will be used. It is a 2 part questionnaire that is patient-self administered. The crepitus questions include frequency of crepitus and whether or not crepitus is symptomatic. The anterior knee pain contains 2 questions that collect frequency of pain and location of pain.

Each surgeon will implant devices into the first 10 Subjects which will be considered as 'learning curve cases'; these learning curve cases will not be pooled with post-learning curve cases unless learning curve analyses indicate that there is not a significant learning curve with regard to clinical or functional Subject outcomes.

The Pre and Post-Surgical Patient's Knee Implant Performance (PKIP) questionnaire is a patient self-administered questionnaire that consists of 25 questions relating to the patient's awareness of their knee. Questions include the patient's self-confidence about the current status of their knee performance, stability, and overall satisfaction. Each question has a 5, 6 or 10 Likert- like response option.

An exploratory comparison of results between knees with patella resurfacing versus knees without resurfacing will be conducted. A comparison of KOOS, PKIP, OKS, Knee Society (AKS), anterior knee pain incidence, and crepitus will be conducted.

Radiographs will be reviewed by an independent radiographic reviewer (IRR) in order to minimize bias of radiographic outcomes. Data from the IRR radiographic evaluations will be used to evaluate femoral and tibial component alignment over time.
